Wis. AD moving on

[Palmerhawk]

Wis. AD Chris Macintosh has resigned to take a newly created position with BIG.

Maybe getting out of town ahead of the posse?
Badger fans I know are still pissed about Paul chryst getting fired mid- season to bring in Luke fickell who has struggled.

New ad will have latitude to bail on fickell,maybe?

I'll bet they pay the AD more than the Clowns do.

So basically Fickell is dead man walking this year. Schedule easier than last but so plenty of games they can drop including early season matchup with ND.

Most Badger fans I know understood Chryst had to go…but continuing to give Fickell time is oddly curious for sure. He wasn’t going to get another chance to pick a new football coach.

Checking BadgerBlitz for info now. It's just UW On3 posters so who knows if it's accurate.

How many Badgers hit the portal this year I wonder?

 

[Ripcord]

I suppose the biggest and most obvious question is, who do they get as a head coach when the inevitble happens?

Hopeful for Scott Frost.

Wisconsin state government just signed a bill allocating $15M per year in tax payer funds to the U's NIL fund.

That is just wrong. I would guess the majority of Wisconsin taxpayers are not too happy about that….at least those who are aware of it.

It should be illegal. It's certainly immoral and unethical. Maybe, and I'm just spitballin' here, Wisconsin should be spending taxpayers' dollars on health care, feeding the hungry, and sheltering the unhoused instead of paying college athletes.

Wrong. Nanny-state policies are as wrong as sports-centric policies.

In a quick Google search... I think they approved that 15mil to help the 3 D1 universities pay for facilities? Freeing up that money so they can pay NIL...

Essentially giving the Universities 15mil for something, so they can pay 15mil in NIL.

WHAT A JOKE
